Legend of King David

Goliath, the powerful leader of the Amalika tribe located between Damascus and Egypt, haunted the Israelites. At that time, David was a soldier in King Talut's army and he killed Goliath by hitting him in the forehead with a slingshot and a stone while fighting one on one. In this way, he gained the favor of King Talut. In this way, David entered the palace and became Talut's musketeer and instrumentalist. Although Talut became jealous of David over time, he married the Princess. When he learned that Talut's men wanted to kill him, he ran away from the palace gathered around the stray warriors he saw outside, and became a gang leader. His gang was defeated by Talut's army and dispersed. David took refuge with the Philistines and became one of their commanders. King Talut's son, Talut was killed by the Philistines, and thus the Philistines brought the Israelites under their rule, and David became the king of Judah.

It is believed that his genealogy dates back to the prophet Abraham. His grave is in the city of Jerusalem.
